I know best practice is to add elements to the Body CSS tag provided in the main template editing section. However, I need to add an Onload javascript call for my mouseover code. How can I edit the <BODY> tag for the whole site?
You need this for all your pages, or just some? The body tag is in the main templates for most pages. You just need to edit it there (you can do a Search In Templates for "<body")
I would need it in all pages. Which templates must i edit then to change all pages?
You would have to edit the body tag in all of the templates for the pages. Do a Search in Templates for "<body" Alternately, you may be able to use the Replacement Variables to add it in.
@manning, the guy is not asking for CSS, please read better.
@vbplusme, please consider learning more of the vBulletin templates before making such false reply.
Lynne's info is right, but also, using an onload in the body tag may corrupt some internal functions inside vBulletin, because of the additions of a lot of ajax and javascripts in the system... you will have to check the pages you really need to insert that onload to, because if you see a $onload in the template, it means vBulletin will add its own script in the <body tag.

Ok, so maybe I should reconsider using javascript based mouseover code for my menu? I was also wondering if it might have an affect on performance. I think it is checking if the user has the images cached and then does not send them, but im not 100% sure as I didnt write the code and am not a developer myself.
